My classroom! She's a sight for sore eyes...if you look closely you will notice a broken window...that's because the degree of learning that occurs here is so intense that it actually shatters glass
My b-e-a-utiful lil' classroom! There are 17 computers in the classroom which were donated last year. They don't get internet but I think it's pretty amazing to have them.
So I've been working on my "teacher stare" (the power bestowed upon all great teachers to command total silence, fear, respect, and attention from a misbehaving student simply by looking at them with ferocity). Please vote on which one you think is best so I can work on it to use in class. Above is: Teacher Stare A
Teacher Stare B
Teacher Stare C
Teacher Stare D
Me and 2 of my 6th grade students in Orosi during orientation...hahaha and Paul in the bottom right corner (he's another volunteer, not a 6th grader with a Pituitary Gland disorder)
Marshmallow Time with Emmy, my freaking adorable 3 year old host niece!!...she's so cute it's actually overwhelming, but don't let her devilishly cute eyes and smile fool you...her terrible 2's haven't received the memo that she is 3 now...
****** Here is the link to LOTS of pictures!! I only labeled some because there are so many, but the first bunch are from my first day of school (hooray!), the middle lot are from my climb/hike up Cerro Chirripo (at 12,520 feet, it's the highest point in Costa Rica...more details to come!), and the final bunch are from my first few days in La Esperanza...the dude with the mullet underneath the antlers is one of my host brothers, Erick...he's an absurd human so naturally, we get along great!*******
YAY! :)
